STEEL STRUCTURE DESIGN PART 2

The book "Steel Structure Design" is a compendium of knowledge on the design and dimensioning of steel structural elements. The author, Jan Żmuda, presents the principles of Eurocode 3 in an accessible way, making it easier for designers and contractors to understand and apply the standards in practice. The second part focuses on beams, purlins, nodes, frames and bearings, offering numerous calculation examples and sketches of structural solutions. Ideal for engineers and construction students.

• Synthetic approach to Eurocode standards
• Practical tips on dimensioning
• Numerous calculation examples with sketches
• Discussion of beam design, purlins and nodes
• Detailed information on frames and bearings
• Guide in the design process
• Facilitates the interpretation of construction principles

The book is an invaluable aid for designers and contractors of steel structures, enabling them to correctly interpret and apply the construction principles contained in the Eurocode standards. The author discusses in a matter-of-fact way the issues of load-bearing capacity of solid-web girders and roof purlins, modeling of nodes, calculation of supporting frames and design of rolled beams. Numerous calculation examples with sketches of structural solutions facilitate the understanding and practical application of the presented knowledge.

Wydawnictwo Naukowe PWN, known for its high-quality scientific and technical publications, guarantees the reliability and timeliness of the information presented. The book "Steel Structure Design" is the result of the author's many years of experience in the field of steel structures, which makes it an indispensable source of knowledge for every civil engineer. The study is a kind of guide in the process of designing basic structural elements and more complex load-bearing assemblies of steel structural skeletons, facilitating designers, but also construction contractors, the correct interpretation, application and practical understanding of the construction principles adopted in the provisions of Eurocode standards.

The second part of "Steel Structure Design", which you are currently reading, is primarily a discussion of the principles of designing beams, purlins, nodes and connections, frames and bearings. The author discusses in a matter-of-fact way, among other things, the issues of load-bearing capacity of solid-web girders and roof purlins, modeling of nodes, calculation of supporting frames and design of rolled beams. We also encourage you to read the first part of the study. The author focused on truss girders, columns and frames. Both parts constitute a complementary set of knowledge necessary for practicing engineers, but also for students of construction and related faculties of technical universities.
